Yeah and this is what really torques me off. People who use the course as a nature trail. Right after our course was put in I could understand it. But after three years there's no excuse for it. Every time I see someone doing this I warn them that they could get hurt because people who are teeing off will not necessarily see them.

And once a group of kids were playing football in the middle of one hole. That's just ridiculous.

When I played at La Mirada, there was a couple picnicking in the middle of a fairway. I walked down and told them I was about to throw and they were in the middle of a disc golf hole, but they just shrugged and blew me off. That course was easily the most renowned course in the World at that time, and it had been there for 20 years at that point. I remember thinking "If the people in LA Mirada don't know about disc golf, where in the Hell DO people know about disc golf?"

I went to play one Labor Day weekend and there was a camper parked in the fairway of #3 at Archusa and a Tent about 20 feet from the #2 basket but at least off to the side. That course does not have a lot of regular Disc golfers.

I don't understand the whole gay thing? There is absolutely nothing remotely homosexual about a group of sweaty, hard breathing guys traipsing through the dense overgrowth with man-bags full of brighly colored plastic.....OK, let me start over. Seriously, I had not heard the gay correlation before.Wonder if its only in certain metro areas? The stoner label is somewhat legit, at least in my area.
The comment I have probably heard the most from non-players is, "Do you play fisbee golf just like real golf?" I try to be patient as I explain to them that disc golf is very real in its own right and point out the many reasons why I enjoy it. Some people seem genuinely intrigued but most just kind of have that "Oh thats nice" response and are on there way.

yeah has nothing to do with dude/chix ratio - the "That's Gay" thing is sorta being taken out of context here. That's Gay is sort of an older term not used that much as it once was. - especially since everything is PC nowadays but it's the same thing as "Thats lame" , "That's dumb", "That sucks"
I remember using it as far back as i remember when i definitely didnt know what gay really meant.

The only people who could get away with saying that to someone would have to be people you know pretty well and are busting balls.
